A historical recipe

From an old book: a historical recipe, not current advice. Its methods, additives and storage may be unsafe by today's standards.

Ingredients 2 ingredients

  1. ¾ cup sugar
  2. ¾ cup chopped nuts

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Follow Nut Bread recipe (page 12)—except use ¾ cup sugar and instead of milk use orange juice plus 1 tbsp.
  2. grated orange rind.
  3. Use only ¾ cup chopped nuts.
  4. Bake 50 to 55 min.
